Wanted: Armistice Day Yobs

Transport cops are hunting four mystery males, wanted for abusing a lone passenger on Armistice Day.

British Transport Police (BTP) have launched the investigation into the offence, which occurred on the London Underground.

Armistice Day commemorates the end of World War One and large groups of demonstrators and counter-demonstrators descended on Central London, particularly The Cenotaph memorial, Whitehall.

BTP officers are appealing to members of the public for their assistance in identifying the four unknown individuals.

They are treating the incident as a “serious public order offence”.

It happened at approximately 4.30pm on Saturday, November 11 on a Circle Line tube train as it travelled eastbound between Westminster and Mansion House Underground Stations.

A group of six or seven men boarded the train at Westminster Underground Station, approached a lone man and started shouting abuse at him.

Detectives would like to speak to the men in the images, who they believe may have information that could help their investigation.

Anyone who recognises them is asked to contact British Transport Police by texting 61016 or by calling 0800 40 50 40 quoting reference number 542 of 11/11/2023.

Alternatively, you can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
